Question
Write a function called find_duplicates which accepts one list as a parameter.
- This function needs to sort through the list passed to it and find values that are duplicated in the list.
- The duplicated values should be compiled into another list which the function will return.
- No matter how many times a word is duplicated, it should only be added once to the duplicates list.
NB: Only write the function. Do not call it.
For example:
Test | Result |
---|---|
random_words = ("remember","snakes","nappy","rough","dusty","judicious","brainy","shop","light","straw","quickest", "adventurous","yielding","grandiose","replace","fat","wipe","happy","brainy","shop","light","straw", "quickest","adventurous","yielding","grandiose","motion","gaudy","precede","medical","park","flowers", "noiseless","blade","hanging","whistle","event","slip") print(find_duplicates(sorted(random_words))) | ['adventurous', 'brainy', 'grandiose', 'light', 'quickest', 'shop', 'straw', 'yielding'] |
print(find_duplicates(sorted(["apples", "pears", "grapes","apples", "pears", "grapes","apples", "pears", "grapes"]))) | ['apples', 'grapes', 'pears'] |
print(find_duplicates(sorted(["tea", "coffee", "hot chocolate", "cocoa", "tea", "tea"]))) |

- The function list_combination takes two lists as arguments, list_one and list_two. Return from the function the combination of both lists - that is, a single list such that it alternately takes elements from both lists starting from list_one. You can assume that both list_one and list_two will be of equal lengths. As an example if list_one = [1,3,5] and if list_two = [2,4,6]. The function must return [1,2,3,4,5,6].arrow_forwardprogram7.pyThis assignment requires the main function and a custom value-returning function. The value-returning function takes a list of random integers as its only argument and returns a smaller list of only the elements that end with 7. This value-returning function must use a list comprehension to create this smaller list.In the main function, code these steps in this sequence: Set random seed to 42 import randomrandom.seed(42) create an empty list that will the hold random integers. use a loop to add 50 random integers to the list. All integers should be between 200 and 250, inclusive. Duplicates are okay. sort the list in ascending order and then use another loop to display all 50 sorted integers on one line separated by spaces. print a slice showing list elements indexed 5 through 10, inclusive. print a second slice showing the final 5 elements in the sorted list. execute the custom function with the entire original list as its sole argument. report the number of elements in…arrow_forwardDebug the program debug_me.py.

- What does the following error message normally mean? IndexError: list index out of range Select one: а. This error normally indicates that you have tried to access an element of a list that doesn't exist. O b. This error normally means that you have used the range() function incorrectly. С. This error normally means that you have used a list where you should have used a tuple. d. This error normally means that you used too many lines of code in your program.arrow_forwardWrite a program with two functions: addToList(food): printList(food): Print the entire list food is used to pass a list to the function.
